S05 E08: Stor(e)ytime

Note:
If you're having trouble listening to the latest episode, try going to our podbean site (pretty much the same as our blogspot site) and click Listen Now at the bottom of the post. We'll work on fixing the problems ASAP.


In the interest of saving the hesitant some time, understand that this week begins with Tyler talking about what deserts he just ate. Yep, that's the kind of show this episode turned out to be: mostly just Alissa and Tyler shooting the breeze, with a little planning talk thrown in for good measure. It is exactly as entertaining as it sounds, but of course that's up to you, isn't it. Enjoy!(?)

Alissa aural fixation. (Her oral fixation? Tongue.)

Thank you both for a lovely evening. I like your Montreal Tourist "Plan B" talk Tyler, and Alicia I learned about criteria for granting building permits, especially in the context of your discussion.

I could also relate to that bit about comedians and the feeling I get sometimes that I am not supposed to be as cool, as perceptive or as informed as the performer is. It can feel like those times at a wedding when speeches have inside jokes that only a select few, in this case only the comedian himself, are privy too.

You two are certainly leading exciting lives....... UAE flight attendants, helicopter engined power boats, outlandish foodstuffs, and seedy hotels!!! Luckily your paths do not cross too often as the effects could be devastating. For example, just think of Allissa attending her eagerly anticipated Arts & Crafts event last weekend at Fort York. It's a Fort after all! Tyler's troop, all sporting hair shirts, could have been there at the same time carrying out a re-enactment and sweating like pigs. It would have been a disaster in the making.

I am learning all sorts of things through ASR. My vocabulary is increasing by leaps and bounds. Here is a sample. "I caused quite an embroglio when I dressed as a mandrill during this year's purim".

I am curious if Alissa's in-laws are any relation to a George Tomlinson, who was a prominent leader in the pulp and paper industry?

Take care
